You could try asking your local pet stores if they could order something for you. The shop I worked at did that all the time for people. Try local "mom and pop" type shops, not big chain stores. If you tell them you want x amount of bags every so often they can probably accommodate you.

Pagie I don't know if New Zealand customs is as strict as Australian customs are. If you can order other pellets from Australia there are a few online suppliers I can help you with. But you would have to check on that. Kaytee is a very good product & i would favour it over Passwells.

But that said there is no reason why you can't feed other foods if your having trouble getting pellets. All my parrots do very well on a fresh food diet. Just let me know if i can be of help.

Lynfield Vets in Auckland have Harrisons organic pellets which are good - my tiel Jaspa is on those.

I don't live in NZ, so I don't know, by my vet said she didn't like KayTee. I haven't heard of the other ones. I have Puck on Harrison's, which are organic and supposedly Kosher, of that matters.
